The Denver Nuggets return to Ball Arena following a disappointing result in Dallas to face the struggling Philadelphia 76ers. After winning six in a row, they are now losers of their last five and most likely will be without Joel Embiid again. They may not be playing well, but this is still a talented lineup even without Embiid. Tobias Harris is a professional scorer, Tyrese Maxey is providing excellent offense for them, and Andre Drummond is a monster on the glass.
If Denver wants to prevent Philadelphia from stealing one, their bench will have to play much better.
